What’s the difference between GoDAM Free and Pro?

GoDAM Free plugin gives you a solid foundation for managing media and making videos interactive in WordPress, using features like custom branding, interactive CTAs, in-video forms, video ads monetization, and media library management. The Pro version adds advanced capabilities such as in-depth analytics, GoDAM Central cloud storage, automatic transcoding, global CDN delivery, adaptive bitrate streaming optimization, AI transcription and watermarking. In short, Free is for starting out, Pro is for scaling up.

Can I try Pro before upgrading?

We offer a 7-day free trial of GoDAM Pro, giving you full access to advanced features like transcoding, adaptive bitrate streaming, analytics, cloud storage, and CDN delivery. Explore the platform risk-free, then upgrade when you’re ready to scale your video strategy with our all-in-one digital asset management solution.

How does GoDAM handle video storage in Pro vs Free plan?

In the Free version, videos are stored in your WordPress Media Library. With Pro, you unlock GoDAM Central cloud storage, which is built to scale as your library grows. This means your website won’t get bloated with heavy media files, upload files upto 4GB, and videos stream faster worldwide using the integrated global CDN.

Which file types are supported in Pro plan for transcoding?

GoDAM converts all supported audio files to mp3 format and video files to MPD format.
Supported input formats are:
Audio: mp3, m4a, wav, ogg
Video: 3g2, 3gp, avi, flv, m4v, mov (QDM2 only), mp4, ogv, webm, wmv

Is there any limit on video playback speed or quality?

With Free, playback is handled directly from WordPress hosting, which may be limited by your server. Pro introduces automatic transcoding and adaptive bitrate streaming through GoDAM Central and its global CDN, ensuring videos load faster, adjust to viewers’ internet speed, and play seamlessly on any device.

Can I collect leads and run forms inside videos in free plan?

Yes! Both Free and Pro versions allow you to embed in-video forms using popular plugins like Gravity Forms, WPForms, Fluent Forms, Jetpack Forms, and more.

Does the free or pro plan include video engagement tracking and analytics?

Analytics is part of our pro plan. GoDAM provides robust analytics tools to track video engagement, including metrics like play counts, watch time, and heatmaps to see which parts of your videos are most engaging. These insights help you optimize your content strategy.

What happens if my subscription expires or I don’t renew?

If your subscription expires or is not renewed, GoDAM will continue serving your transcoded videos and assets for 30 days. After this period, all transcoded videos and assets will be removed from GoDAM’s CDN and the original uploaded video in your WordPress media library will remain and will be served instead. To avoid service interruptions, we recommend renewing your subscription before it expires.
